Marygrove Library is hosting their multicultural first book discussion group. During the dates of September 2nd, 2014 through September 27th, 2014, students, faculty, staff, alumni, and guests are invited to review multicultural book titles and submit their first and second book choices. Each person who submits their choice, as well as their name and email address via the Survey Monkey link provided will be entered to win a copy of the chosen book. A short synopsis of each book will be provided to introduce participants to titles they may not be familiar with. Once the most popular title has been chosen, Marygrove Library will then invite the entire college community to read the chosen book independently. Multiple copies will be available for checkout at the Marygrove Library, as well as available through interlibrary loan. There will be an online book discussion group for those who wish to participate, as well as an informal book discussion group/gathering in which refreshments will be served. Those who attend the informal book discussion group/gathering will be entered into a drawing to win one of the multiple copies Marygrove Library purchased for the book discussion group.

The library will be closed for intersession from Monday, August 18, through Sunday, Sunday August 31 except for appointments. If you need to use library resources Monday through Friday of these two weeks, please call to make an appointment at 313.927.1346. Enjoy the semester break!
